@Oreos_Yum “May, marked officially as Military Appreciation Month, is a special month for both those in and out of the military. ... Congress designated May as National Military Appreciation Month in 1999 to ensure the nation was given the chance to publicly show their appreciation for troops past and present.” National Military Appreciation Month (NMAM) is celebrated every May and is a declaration that encourages U.S. citizens to observe the month in a symbol of unity. NMAM honors current and former members of the U.S. Armed Forces, including those who have died in the pursuit of freedom.” Hun there is literally a month for veterans-

@Oreos_Yum they were just explaining their beliefs like you were explaining yours. I somewhat agree with you but there was no need to roll your eyes at them-

@Oreos_Yum i will agree that is sometimes isn't a choice, but it has been for so long. all i did was answer your question, no need to get rude. you can do almost anything to get out of being drafted sweetheart especially now. it's always a choice to serve ❤️ you don't choose who you love

@Oreos_Yum the military gets lots of appreciation and support, as well as memorials and honorable grave sights for those who have served, even if they are unidentifiable. Almost every day somewhere in the US people are "taking two minutes of silence for our fallen warriors" and the service goes appreciated everywhere you go. military people get discounts for their services, they get free college and support, the list goes on and on even if you have no action time.

the LGBT+ fought to have this. to have them appreciated. the military fights for our country to keep our rights, but the LGBT+ had to fight for the rights we have now because no one wanted to give it to us. There are men and women who to this day are dispatched because they find out they're gay or are in a homoseual relationship, and that has been going on for centuries.

just like there is a black history month, there is our month. you have your month too.

LGBT+ people have lost their lives for being LGBT. beaten, whipped, stoned, just for loving someone. for being who they are, something they have no control over. We have lost people in our community because they fought against discrimination in this country. There are still countries out there where you will be killed if you kiss someone of the same sex. joining the military is a choice, being LGBT+ is not

@Oreos_Yum I have to add that while Pride month is International, the military you are talking about is only for the US

@Oreos_Yum because the military is pretty corrupt. It’s already supported by many and has tons of funding. Apparently May is for the military though.

@Oreos_Yum I'm sure there are more than two minutes in a year to honor the military 😉 lots of causes that need awareness have a whole month dedicated to them. In fact I just googled it and each month is the awareness month for several different things. 😲 National Military Appreciation Month is in May btw. So you've got your whole month 😉
